![]() | 4-piece Lunar observation 1.25" filter set |
![]() £21.99 including UK P&P |
A set of four Antares high-quality 1.25" filters: two neutral-density filters (ND-13 and ND-25) and two colour filters (#11 and #12), supplied in a handy foam-fitted storage case. ND25 25% transmission neutral-density For attenuating image brightness when viewing bright targets such as the Moon. Clarifies separation of double stars. ND13 13% transmission neutral-density For further attenuating image brightness when viewing bright targets such as the Moon. Clarifies separation of double stars. #11 Yellow/Green Useful for reducing chromatic aberration seen in achromatic refractors, and for glare reduction while observing the moon. #12 Yellow Glare reduction and contrast enhancement. Note that the use of colour filters when making telescopic observations is not an exact science and the recommendations above are somewhat subjective in character. The appearance of the target and the detail improvement shown by a particular filter varies with the conditions – experimentation is the key. Remember: filters can be combined! |
